Watson will almost certainly be on the board for our first rounder. He will possibly be on the board for our second pick.
I understand 100% of the critiques here. He's from a spread offense. He hasn't run a huddle. He hasn't worked under center. He has off games. He's undersized...
I get it. I get it all.
This guy plays like a goddamn champion. Put aside the fact that he actually is one -- he is a locker room leader with toughness beyond his years.
We need to take him. He needs to be the QB of the future in Kansas City. [Reply]

Congratulations! You just described Tim Tebow! [Reply]
Wherever he goes in the NFL, they would be well advised to let him sit a year and learn how to be an NFL QB, no matter how bad the team is or how bad the QB situation he's a part of is. [Reply]

That's not entirely fair.
His build isn't really that slight. He's built more like Mariota than RGIII. Really, he's probably built at least as thickly as Smith.
He could maybe get a little thicker in his lower half but that's true of anyone in their early 20s. He's plenty sturdy enough for this level, IMO.
He'd be an exciting pick and a fun guy to root for and watch develop. I'm still not convinced he'd be the right pick but I'd absolutely defer here. [Reply]
